Easy Soup Base - June Idea of the Month

After a natural disaster or during an emergency situation, food can be scarce.
Knowing how to make the small amount of food you might have available,
 into something good to eat is essential.

For an easy soup base take a gravy packet and double the water that it calls for.
We like McCormick gravy, it calls for 2 cups cold water so we add 4 cups of water (if you like the soup thicker: only add 3 cups of water to 1 McCormick’s gravy packet).
 Then, add salt to make up the difference for the extra water. Next, add some canned beef, canned corn, and canned baby potatoes. Finally, stir until the soup is at a low boil.
This soup is really great and very easy to make! Try it!
